So i recently got a modified exhaust ticket for my Aspec BP. I was wondering would a stock s14 exhaust welded on to my 3' pipe with a resonator be good enough to pass the fix it ticket when i take it to the pch? Also would the chp look around my car? i have a big fmic and i worried about that. im just happy it was a fix it ticket and not a state ref

Get a breaker bar on the end of the bolt and try to move it back and forth. If not rethread the nut onto the the bolt, get a punch/extension and beat it out. It'll come. Or take a wrench on the bolt and shake it back and forth as you hit it with the hammer.

There isn't any 'correct' spot for anything, just so long as they have a source. I wouldn't worry about Ting anything off, it's not going to make a huge difference with any of that.

What are you talking about? The 2 bolt adapter for the t25 style inlet or what? There really isn't much difference, it's a single 90* elbow for the hoptipe.

Unfortunately, I do not have two of everything. Let me know what works for you, if you would.

Someone have the specs of this 180sx?

doomviillain · 09-20-2011, 05:05 PM

between 4-2-1 headers and 4-1 equal length headers on a KA, is there any difference in sound or performance between the two? Anybody with info on this inform me.

4-2-1 headers

4-1 equal length headers

*insert sarcastic comment about it not being a 180sx*

I think I've seen it before, however. If memory serves, he's running a Ford 8.8 rear end and running it as a drag car. That's about all I know aside from the obvious.

BOROSUN · 09-20-2011, 06:59 PM

4-1 should give the ka top-end power.

4-2-1 should give the ka mid-end power.

harrypotter · 09-20-2011, 07:35 PM

Wakehbr and codyace I am talking about this:

I do not want to use this adapter kit, and also do not want to piece together intercooler piping. The t25 turbo outlet is straight up and the t28 comes forward a little. I am putting a 2871 on my redtop.

My question: is there a company that sells a fmic or hotpipe alone that will work without using the adapter?

240KA · 09-20-2011, 07:42 PM

car is a 95 240sx. i hear an electric clicking noise every 3-4 seconds coming from my driver side door panel. i think it's coming near the locking/door handle mechanism, but i dont have power locks. anyone know what the problem could be? also, my power window works intermittently, and if i remember correctly the amp is sort of in that location, could it be that? i just replaced it.

rat240 · 09-20-2011, 10:20 PM

any of you members know what clips can be used to mount wangan wings
I sold my last wing and I was nice enough to give the buyer the clips and now I can't find any thing similar to the kind that come with the bomex wing

can't find a pick of them

Where does one get vacuum and WG line hoses? Mine are all cut.

And on the timing chain portion, what is that bracket used for? All the way on the left. Page 13.

Wow i cant believe you are bitching about how that looks. Get over it. Stick with your t25.

Thank you.

Now, how is it that one tightens the oil pressure regulator to 45 lbs without snapping or bending the oil pump?

chiboy002 · 09-21-2011, 05:17 PM

is it common for shitty NRG contact plates to break off from the hub? The little plastic thing that allows the blinkers to work...

i took mine off after a year of use and it broke lol

TrueFreshness · 09-21-2011, 06:47 PM

Can anyone tell me where I can get these wheels?

pandaroo · 09-21-2011, 07:09 PM

does anyone know if there is a place in the s13 fsm that explains what the wires do/are?(power, ground,signal wire).
in the wiring diagrams it tells you the colors and a number next to the switches and i suspect
there is a table using the numbers somewhere i just cant seem to find it.

any help would be appreciated!

STEEZxIT · 09-21-2011, 10:01 PM

am i the only one who is constantly getting blocked from rimtuck.com? i don't even have a profile on there! it just keeps saying "Your connection to this server has been blocked at the firewall." - ultra web hosting.

wtfman.

on the first few pages of the FSM is says what the colors mean like BL/W and all that. It helps a lot

however, for positions, you have to look around. The way the PDF version is makes it really confusion but sometimes the table is on a different page

like for interior wiring, it will label all the harnesses and units on, say, page 200, but the actual names and numbers will be on page 198. (just made up those page #s)

Does anyone know if that guys that used to be on here selling Exedy OEM clutche kits for $100 is still around?

ms7n · 09-22-2011, 09:11 AM

Hey guys i have a question: My 240sx is making a squeaking noise from my rear end every time i go over a bump or get out of my car

...I tried researching a bit and tightened up my coilovers but it still made the noise....i was thinking it was my wheels but how could it be:}

If you guys have any idea what might be causing this damn noise help me out its annoying the heck outta me, thanks!

BlackZenkiS14 · 09-22-2011, 10:02 AM

What could cause Idle hesitation, like when I shift into neutral or rev it in neutral, the revs drop real low and want to die, and sometimes it does. it picks back up and smooths out eventually and idles fine at 900rpm usually though. but its annoying to have to try to modulate the gas when stopping to try to keep the revs from dropping too low until it smooths out.

I know its not a Vac leak. I checked that already.

Could this be caused by not having enough engine grounds?
